In n Toledo Episcopal Church-Too Much
Like Catholics. -......
TOLEDO, May 3.--Ss. Johns Episcopal
church, this city, is the seat Of a good
aizsd row. Two years ago Bishop Bedell
refused to confirm class because, as he
said, Rev. Mr.. De Garmo, the rector, had
introduced the use Of incense and the
wearing Of vestments, which were repug-
nant to tho canons Of the Episcopal church.
Finally Mr.. De Garmo yielded under pro-
test. Last years class was confirmed With
out objection. Last week Rev. Mr.. De
Garmo wrote to the Bishop, asking him to
appoint day for the confirmation. and
the latter named Saturday afternoon at
4:S0. The Bishop CAME here Saturday
morning, but, after making an investiga-
ton, found that the rector had constructed
over the chancel an artistic figure Of the
cracifx.
Bishop Bedsll at once took the rector TO
task and refused to confirm 80 long as
"that sbominable thing remained in the
church. The Bishop also required that
the confirmation should be held, il hold at
oil, under his immediate direction and
without any assistance on the part OF the
rector, whom he charged with teaching
doctrines false to the church and errone-
ous in themselves. The rector, on the
other hand, defes the Bishop to show
wherein he has departed from the church
canons in single respect. Tho quarrel
has resulted in some spicy correspondence,
and must inevitably lead to further de-
velopments. The parish is with the rec.
Tor, and retused some time ago to accept
his resignation. ~ ~

FISHERIES DEBATE.

Tho Canadian Commons Again Takes Up
" tho Absorbing Subject.
OTTAWA, OST., May 3.-A brief discus-
sion on tho fisheries question took place
in the House Of Commons. Ellis, New
Brunswick member, asked for return Of
all U. s. vessels boarded, warned or inter-
dicted by the Canadian fisheries protec.
ton fleet. He recited a number OF cases
of reported harsh treatment OF American
vessels by Canadian officers, and said that
already l20 complaints had been filed at
Washington. Thompson, Minister OF Jus.
tice, said Ellis was too hattering when he
termed the American reports OF ill.treat-
ment evidence.
The particulars Ellis had given were
selections from number Of rambling in.
accurate statements made against the
British and Colonial authorities by per-
sons who received general invitation to
send in all the claims they could possibly
bring against the Nation, which, it was
supposed, would in the end have to pay q
bill Of damages. 1t transpired, not only
from the Investigation Of these complaints,
but subsequently, by admissions Of some
OF the persons who made these unvera.
cious statements, that they were utterly
without foundation; we're reckless, were
oftentimes based on misapprehensions and
want OF knowledge Of circumstances.
When the papers were brought down it
would be found that the statement OF the
distinguished member Of the Government
Of the United States that the Canadian
fisheries laws and regulations had been
administered with brutality, was as pre-.
posterous an exaRgeration as could be
found in the English language. loud

to bring down the Instructions to the pro-
tective fest, on the ground that 1t would
be, detrimental to the proper carrying Of
